Chicago, Dec. 2—The hunting sea- son just ended cost 135 lives, accord- ing to a tabulation by the Chicago Tribune. In addition 140 persons were injured, several fatally. Wis- consin was the chief sufferer of the season, with a total of twenty-nine dead and twenty-seven injured; Michigan came next with twenty- eight dead and sixteen injured; New York was third with nineteen dead and eleven injured, and Maine fourth with eleven dead. Maine, however, led the list of injured with sixty. Careless handling of weapons was ‘the chief cause of death. Thirty- seven persons lost their lives at their own hands. The careless com- panion was held responsible for twenty-four deaths and injuries. The man who shoots every time he sees a movement in the bush was held responsible for seventeen deaths and ten injuries. Sixteen hunters were drowned while searching for game. It was estimated that 60,000 hunt- ers were in the field in Michigan and Wisconsin alone and with the thou- sands who took the trail in Minne- sota, Maine and New York the total was placed at more than 100,000. HOPE TO SMOKE OUT BANDIT Deputy Sheriffs Make Another Effort to Capture Ralph Lopez. Bingham, Utah, Dec. 2.—Smudges were lighted in the Utah-Apex mine where Ralph Lopez, desperado, is making his last stand. With all exits to the mine except that of the Andy tunnel sealed with mud and poisonous gases floating back into the depths of the workings it was expected that the fugitive would make a break for lib- erty. November 21 Lopez killed a Mexican miner and later in the day he killed the chief of police and two deputies who pursued him. After a chase through several counties he back tracked to Bingham and took refuge in the Utah-Apex mine where he killed two more deputies last Saturday. MINIMUM WAGE OF $8.50 Probable Recoommendation of Minne- sota Commission. St. Paul, Dec. 2—The Minnesota minimum wage commission probably will fix the minimum wage for girls at not less than $8.50 a week. Miss Eliza Evans, secretary, said that though only fifty girls had re- sponded to the commission’s request to file statements as to wages and working conditions, she believed that the amount mentioned would be the zinimum. nineteen GRAIN AND PROVISION PRICES Duluth Wheat and Flax.

Washington, Dec. 2.—In his mes- sage, delivered at a joint session of | the houses of congress at,the begin- | ning of the second session of the Six- ty-third congress, President Wilson urged immediate currency legislation, devoted .considerable space to the needs of the farmers and referred to the Mexican crisis. The Sherman antitrust law, he said, should be changed so that its exact meaning would be clearer. The president also urged the choice of presidential nomi- expressed at primaries. On the Mexi- can situation the president said, in part: “There can be no certain prospect of peace in America until General Huer- ta has surrendered his usurped au- thority in Mexico. Until it is under- stood on all hands, indeed, such pre- tended governments will not be coun- tenanced or dealt with by the gov- ernment of the United States. We are the friends of constitutional govern- ment in America. We are more than its friends; we are its champions, be- cause in no other way can our neigh- bors to whom we would wish in every way to make proof of our friend- ship work out their own development in peace and liberty. Mexico has no government. The attempt to maintain one at the City of Mexico has broken down, and a mere military despotism has been set up which has_ hardly more than the semblance of national authority. It originated in the usurpa- tion of Victoriano Huerta, who, after a brief attempt to play the part of constitutional president, has at last cast aside even the pretense of legal right and declared himself dictator. By his actions Huerta has forfeited the respect and the moral support even of those who were at one time willing to see him succeed. Little by little he has been completely isolated. By a little every day his power and prestige are crumbling, and the col- lapse is not far away. We shall not, I believe, be obliged to alter our pol- icy of watchful waiting. And then, when the end comes, we shall hope to see constitutional order restored in distressed Mexico by the concert and energy of such of her leaders as pre- fer the liberty of their people to their own ambitions.” Currency Legislation Urged. President Wilson urges the immedi- ate passage of currency legislation. He asserts that business interests of the nation are waiting on the expected law before making large new invest- ments or developing resources. The president also calls attention to condi- tions as they exist at present, which make it very difficult for the farmer to finance his crop. He urges in his annual message provisions that will safeguard the farmer, help his credit and prevent a repetition of the neces- sity for the government to deposit large sums of money in the Southern and Western states so as to aid the producer, as was the case last fall. The president’s policy toward the Philippines is made clear. He urges the development of the Philippines, al- ways keeping in view ultimate inde- ‘pendence of the islanders. While he does not believe they are ready for self government today he believes that eventually they will be. He points out improvements that has recently been made by calling attention to the fact that more natives have been ap- pointed on the Philippine commission than was the case previously. On the question of direct elections the president says: “I urge the prompt enactment of legislation which will provide for pri- mary elections throughout the coun- try at which the voters of the sev- eral parties may choose their nomi- nees for the presidency without the in- tervention of nominating conventions. I venture the suggestion that this leg- islation should provide for the reten- tion of party conventions, but only for the purpose of declaring and accepting the verdict of the primaries and formu- lating the platforms of the parties, and I suggest that these conventions should consist not of delegates chosen for this single purpose, but of the nominees for congress, the nominees for vacant seats in the senate of the United States, the senators whose terms have not yet closed, the nation- al committees and the candidates for the presidency themselves, in order that platforms may be framed by those responsible to the people for carrying them into effect.” Slump in Price of Eggs. Chicago, Dec. 2.—The wholesale price of eggs, technically classed as. “ordinary firsts,” declined 3 to 5 cents in South Water street, although there ‘was no material increase in receipts. rency Legislation, Declares for UI. | deltion Nominees by Direct Vote of | gees by the direct vote of the people| 3, 1913. STEWART EDWARD WHITE. Outdoes Roosevelt by Conquer- ing Four Lions at One Time! | | T. R. MUST LOOK TO LAURELS Edward White Returning From African Hunt. New York, Dec. 2.—From out of the black jungles of British East Africa is emerging Stewart Edward White, author, explorer and latest aspirant to distinction as the unaided conqueror of four lions at a time. For six months Mr. White has been blazing a trail through the almost impenetrable fast- nesses which helped to make his friend, Theodore Roosevelt, famous’ as | a shooter of big game. But Mr. Roose- velt never was charged by four lions at once. “Just out,” said Mr. White in a let- ter sent from Nairobi, a coast town which is known as the Shanghai’ of | East Africa. “Leave tomorrow. for the forests and sail Dec. 1. Most success- ful trip from every point of view and have discovered a virgin game field. One day counted, not estimated, 4,623 wild animals. One morning while alone with by gunbearer I was charged by four lions at once. Some doings! Managed to kill the lot.” REBELS ARE MARCHING ON CHIHUAHUA CITY ‘Villa’s Advance Force Making Good Progress. Stewart Juarez, Mex., Dec. 2.—General Francisco Villa’s advance army of 3,500 rebels, which is moving to at- tack Chihyahua City, 235 miles south of Juarez, reached a point sixty-three miles from the border. They were forced to detrain there because of the destruction of the railroad. Prep- arations were made at once to march overland to the state capital. Another train carrying 1,000 rebels was made ready here for the journey south. General Villa said that before reaching Chihuahua he expects to be reinforced by Generals Manuel Chao and Juan Cortinas, who were report- ed advancing from Torreon. Unless this movement is intercepted Villa said he hoped to rally at least 7,000 men to attack the 5,000 federals said to be garrisoned in the capital. The latest reports from Chihuahua City, which has been under siege for two weeks, were that the cathedral had been converted into a fort, breast- works of sandbags having been built on the roof, which overlooks the surrounding country. Entrenchments manned by artillery guard the ap- proaches. EREREEEEEEEEE EES BROTHERS MEET AFTER LONG SEPARATION.

Washington, Dec. 2—To prevent fu- ture earth slides in the Culebra cut at Cucaracha, on the Panama canal, en- gineers are preparing to remove an entire hillside at that point. Dredges already are at work on this project, according to information reaching the isthmian canal committee here. Removal of the hillside was made necessary by the extreme plastic na- ture of the earth, which caused the dirt to slide into the cut almost as fast as it was taken out by the dredges.

Washington, Dec. 2.—Right of pub- lishers to maintain arbitrarily sales prices on copyrighted books was de- nied in the supreme court. The court refused to establish a “copyright monopoly” similar to its “patent monopoly” decreed in the Dick mim- eograph case. The decision was made in the year’s fight of R. H. Macey & Co. of New York against the American Pub- lishers’ association and the American Booksellers’ association, charged with composing a “national book trust.” The Illinois child labor law, pro- hibiting employment of children un- der sixteen years, was declared valid by the court, which approved the minimum age limit. ‘+ LION DIES OF GRIEF OVER LOSS OF MATE. Chicago, Dec. 2.—Prince, the big African lion at the Lincoln Park zoo, is dead of a broken heart. Nellie, his mate, died early last summer and for weeks thereafter Prince did not eat. The jungle animal’s fast lasted until cold weather, but even though the beast began to eat again he continued to mourn for his partner. He was buried at the side of Nellie’s grave. tt © eke she ole of oe ole ole ole ote ole ole of Po ie ed de de ie a de ei ie CALL PHONE 116 —— AND GET—— dealing Get “More Money” for your pond S SHIP YOUR FURS TO “SHUBERT” ja reliable—responsible—safe—Fur House with an ane eet e ‘The he only reliable, accurate market report and price list published.
